Nah, he missed that part of the document
16:45

they changed stuff but not that
16:49

[freenode] <Lord_Nightmare> but its now banned 'according to UK law' whatever that means different from the blanket ban before
16:52

taking over a channel against policy is still a problem

[freenode] <Lord_Nightmare> no, 30 days notice as a user, to other users.

18:32

sure
18:32

I guess that's an idea for you

not a bad idea

if rasengan wants to turn freenode into a toy den of sock puppet bots pretending to be an open source irc network, while everyone else moves across the street to libera when the emperor having his $GENITALIA hanging out becomes too much to bear... he's a sad sad person.

anyway I'd see what that weird 5.25" drive that came with this is
18:44
<
andlabs >
but any identifying mark is hidden on the underside of the drive
18:44

not in a position to unscrew the 5.25" drive; the power supply is still connected to the mainboard and neither o us feel safe removing it because we can't figure out how

isn't that just a typical very basic FM e.guitar though
23:25
<
fseidel >
yes, unlike the spinball options one, which is extremely grating
23:25
<
fseidel >
I'd 100% believe that comment. spinball feels rushed in general, really janky game.

"he was under a VERY STRICT time limit to compose the soundtrack and, as a result, it was rushed"
23:26
<
fseidel >
the genesis soundtrack is a lot thinner than I would expect. The arcade original is 100% YM2151 and uses 7 channels, with 1 reserved for SFX
23:26
<
andlabs >
which probably explains lava generator's broken loops
23:27
<
andlabs >
but which doesn't explain the rushed soundtrack rewriting partway into the game run
23:27
<
andlabs >
spinball had a ton of revisions too
23:27
<
andlabs >
fseidel: also I think the port was handled by tengen japan rather than by toaplan themselves
23:27
<
fseidel >
yeah, that's true.
23:27
<
andlabs >
but I'm not 100% sure about that
23:28
<
andlabs >
of course even within toaplan's own games it seems like very few people ever realized that the voices are compatible
23:28
<
andlabs >
very few people throughout all of gaming
23:28
<
fseidel >
with the exception of V-V/Grind Stormer, all the Toaplan ports on the MD are from arcade boards with OPL2, so the voices aren't compatible

oh right, and that one.

foruunately they go tsomeone good to do the music

didn't stop him from being
*very slightly lazy* in one case though
23:29

you talking about the track that sounds like gradius?
23:30
<
andlabs >
I'm talking about the track that's literally to mark the end of battle

"if I only use the intro no one will notice"

at least it's not Jim Power :-)
23:32
<
andlabs >
which one is gradius?
23:34
<
fseidel >
I'm apparently misremembering, none of these seem to rip off Gradius
23:35

although "Flight" definitely has a similar feel to G2/3
